Halloween
As a school we celebrate Halloween with breakfast parties from 8:30-9:20 AM. Our all school parade follows (the route will be in your box). Please remind parent helpers of the timeframe for our parties. Please also remind all families that students are to change out of their costumes at the end of the parade and that masks, weapons, and face paint are not permitted. If you have students who do not wish to participate they can come to school at 10:00, or they can go to the library.
5th Grade Technology CoTeaching
Students created an infographic using piktochart to synthesize their work around "What do you do with a question?" this week. Digitally students recorded questions, categorized questions, researched questions using keywords using Discovery Education, PebbleGo, Children's Britannica, and www.kidrex.org. HERE is a google document template that has the resources hyperlinked that you can use in your classroom. I've also modified the document to include QR codes directing them to the sites listed above for easier access. QR version click HERE.
